- Rename the era.mdb file era.mdb.old.<date> (for example, era.mdb.old.4.26.12)
- Click Start → Run, type services.msc and click OK.
- Select the ESET Remote Administrator Server service and click Start.

IV. Resolve server name mismatches (if necessary)
- On your new server, modify the hostname in the database by starting the ERA server service using one of the following commands from an administrative command prompt (quotation marks should be included when you submit these commands).
- 32-bit systems: "C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Remote Administrator\Server\era.exe" -server_name_repair
- 64-bit systems: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ESET\ESET Remote Administrator\Server\era.exe" -server_name_repair
